    摘要: Systems and methods in accordance with the present invention can include a tip contactable with a media. In an embodiment, the tip comprises a substantially hollow structure formed of a metal. The tip can be formed by depositing a first metal layer over silicon thereby defining a cantilever structure, depositing a second metal layer at least partially over the first metal layer, and at least partially over a cone structure of the silicon to define the tip structure. The silicon can then be removed from beneath the cantilever and from within the deposited second metal layer by etching, thereby leaving a low-mass metal tip associated with a metal cantilever. An alternative embodiment, the silicon can be removed from beneath the cantilever by etching, but endpointed such that at least a portion of the cone structure remains beneath the second metal layer. The silicon/metal tip can have good wear characteristics and a slightly higher mass.

    摘要: Systems in accordance with the present invention can include a tip contactable with a media, the media including a substrate and a plurality of cells disposed over the substrate, one or more of the cells being electrically isolated from the other of the cells by a material having insulating properties. One or more of the plurality of cells can include a phase change material. The media is either grounded or electrically connected with a voltage source such that when the tip is placed in contact with the media and a voltage is applied to the tip, a current is drawn through the cell over which the tip is arranged. The current is drawn through the isolated cell at least a portion of the phase change material within the cell beneath the tip is heated to a sufficient temperature such that the material become amorphous in structure. The current is then removed from the phase change material, which is quickly cooled to form an amorphous domain having a resistance representing a “1” (or a “0”). In another embodiment the one or more of the plurality of cells can include a polarity dependent material. In an embodiment, the one or more cells can have a sidewall structure that tapers along the depth of the cell so that the cell has a wider cross-section near where a tip contacts the media and a narrower cross-section near where the cell contacts one of the substrate and an underlayer.

    摘要: 3D accelerometer for measuring three components of inertial force (or acceleration) vector with respect to an orthogonal coordinate system, which has high sensitivity due to a big proof mass located within a cavity beneath the surface of the sensor die. The size of the cavity and the size of the proof mass exceed the corresponding overall dimensions of the elastic element. The sensor structure occupies a very small area at the surface of the die increasing the area for ICs need to be integrated on the same chip.
